This run felt awesome.  I felt energized for some reason the last 2 miles (I think it was because Queen came up on the ipod).

AM run.

My first mile was really slow while I worked out some soreness.  Other 4 miles were about 9:40 pace.

Now that I'm done, the soreness is gone.

A weird day.  We had to run part inside, part outside and cut our running short because of a storm.  Continued inside with some strength training.

Guessing on the distance here.  Had to get in my running in dribs and drabs.

Started with 1.5 miles and pushed it because I knew the rest would be hard to get in.

We were at Chrisman and they do flighted races (so we had 8 races), but there were always 2 races going on at once.  Once one group went by, I ran backward along the course to see the next group, ran across the course to the finish, etc.  Sometimes I was able to get in .25 or .5 miles, sometime it was only a minute or two.

I'm just crossing my fingers that the training I did over the summer is going to help me at the marathon--as always during this time of the year, it's getting hard to get mileage in.  I'm trying not to feel guilty about it, but it's hard not to.
